‘Shopping’ here is not always about an actual purchase. Viewing the various items on display from one stall to another is a highlight on its own, showing the craftsmanship and the artistry of the Balinese. Admiring all the shops and stalls usually cannot be accomplished in 1 day. So, if you spot an item you’re interested in, you can come back another day to bargain or settle the deal.

Unlike the various shops lining Monkey Forest Road, most items on stalls at the Ubud Art Market have no barcode or set price. Haggling is expected and encouraged as part of the fun of shopping but do so politely and with a smile. It’s often helpful to decide upon the most you want to pay for an item before you start. Start at about half the asking price and go up till a compromise is reached. It’s best to shop around to get an idea of typical prices before you commit to making a purchase.
